Thing is, although I was a spoiled child (very well spoiled, my needs were always taken care of but my parents never let it go to my head and rightfully so) 90% of the items on this list I have earned with my own money by working in a tiresome job. Does this make me spoiled? I tend to think of spoiled people as those who have a lot of these things given to them and take them for granted.
I am however entirely spoiled by
